That would be the weaponsmith buff.

Correct response would be - testing was inconclusive - try artisan and WS buff (and others at random)

The Shiro Clan of TC -

...has successfully tracked Tiggs

...is still tracking down more bugs

NB: Any comments I make on TC code can and often do change

before they reach live and may not reach live at all, please read my

comments with that in mind.

There was no impact from a Musician buff yesterday whatsoever. Using identical materials, the exact same results obtained.

BTW, where do people observe the 2% resource boost? At what stage in the crafting process does it show and how?

I was going by what Tiggs posted in the Jedi forum on the 29th.

Since my other post on the In Testing forums will probably be missed I will repost the updated information here...

Jedi are a combat profession not a crafting profession regardless if they have to craft their own weapon. However, after further research (just saw answer in an email), Jedi will still get a weaponsmith buff and reap the benefits.

I'd assume from this that a Jedi who doesn't get a benefit from the weaponsmith buff should /bug it. Of course, dev intention and actual reality are often at odds with each other. *heh*

It will show in the experimentation stage most clearly - if your resources are able to make 98% then with a 2% buff they should hit 100%.

LS crafting tools are now reaching quality 15.0 if copper with a CD of 991 or better is used with the Artisan buff 1% resource quality improvement

Have yet to find an Archi who may when inspired create quality 45.0 Crafting stations

The WS buff will be required for the crafting of the LS and is probably still advisable to use a research city, bespin port , server best resources and as many retries to get all amazing successes Then and only then will we see some improvement ( if its all still working) although I believe it will be small anyway.

Most of my in game time in the past two days has been spent testing LS crafting with Weaponsmith & Artisan Inspirations. So far neither buff has proved to provide any benefit.I've reported it and I recommend /bugging it.

Tiggs has said that the weaponsmith buff works for lightsaber crafting. But many have said they see no difference. Who knows.

I've run multiple tests with a wide variety of high and low quality resources. I've found no difference between having a weaponsmith buff and not having one when crafting lightsabers. I've also done a small amount of testing with an artisan buff and see no difference there either. I can confirm artisan buffs are working for crafting ls craftingtools though. I do recall hearing that on test center the buffs whereworking for jedi even when tiggs said they would not. She later said the buffwould be included into the patch but apparentlyit wasnot. The weaponsmith buff for crafting lightsabers was either left out or isbugged?

now that the basic insp buff no longer gives a 10% bonus to crafting and the Weaponsmith buff doesn't seem to work, in my attempt to craft 5 Fourth-Gen Two-Handed Light Sabers yesterday, I only recieved an amazing success twice, while only using 1 exp point per experimentation attempt. I have a total of 7 points since I have completed Saber Techniques IV, so the bottom line is I received 2 amazing successes out of a total of 40 attempts (including the initial assembly on each saber). Please note, this was with Pyrollian Cake, Bespin Port, in a Research City and with the new weaponsmith buff that Tiggs said we should use in crafting LS's. Prior to this, I would at least get 1 or 2 amazing successes per saber attempt.

Needless to say this is very frustrating because I am wasting the valuable (best ever) resources. My alt is a 12pt Master WS and I am not having the same level of difficulty in crafting my weapons. In fact, quite the contrary .. my weapon stats have increased since Pub 23 went into effect, which tells me the new buff is not working for Jedi as Tiggs said it would prior to its release.
